Book Description
The Bakers of Austria-Hungary-which included the author's hometown, Prague-learned that the secret to creating rich, silky, delicious desserts was to use ground nuts instead of flour. Mary Wachtel Mauksch grew up making and savoring the special cakes, tarts, puddings, cookies, and candies that had been passed down from family and friends. In Fabulous & Flourless she shares over 150 of these luscious desserts and accompaniments. Fabulous & Flourless provides recipes for traditional Viennese pastries, which do not use flour, allowing those with wheat gluten allergies to enjoy their favorite desserts without missing out on any of the richness and delicious flavor. Whether for nut and fine pastry lovers or for those allergic to wheat, Fabulous & Flourless is a dessert recipe collection that will add richness to everyone's cookbook shelf.
